Elevate Kids Fun Run
The Elevate Kids Fun Run takes place at Las Colonias Park in Grand Junction, Colorado on April 18, 2027. The event offers three measured courses:
- 2.5k
- 5k
- 10k
The event partners with the D51 Foundation. Registration includes two main options: register on a school or nonprofit team to support that group's physical education program, or choose a charity bib and fundraise for an approved school or nonprofit with a $100 fundraising commitment. Nearly 100 full student race-entry scholarships are being offered for this edition, with applications accepted from October 8, 2026 through March 19, 2027.
Racing uses professional timing with online results. Awards are presented to the top three finishers in each age category. Age categories include 5 and under (2.5k and 5k only), 6–9, 10–14, 15–19, 20–29, 30–39, 40–49, 50–59, 60–69, and 70 plus.
Event shirts are available in youth sizes and a range of adult sizes including women's specific and unisex options; runners are advised that women's specific shirts tend to run small. Shirts are guaranteed for those who register before April 6, 2027 and are available in limited supply afterward. Bib pick-up is available at Mesa Fitness Grand Junction and at the race location on race day. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
